More like jumping. It was clearly able to lift off from the ground.

Do you normally decelerate before you land when you’re jumping?

No, I decelerate as I'm landing, similar to what the car did. Obviously it's not literally jumping with legs, but surely you agree this was "more like jumping" than it was controlled falling, which was what I was responding to?

It’s exactly like the jump jets in mechwarrior. We don’t need to use analogies because they’re always bad.
